S3 Ep200: James Gwinnett: Ready, Set, Life

Over The Influence: The Alcohol Free Podcast

This week we have the wonderful James Gwinett on the pod!
James is nine years alcohol free this year and we think it's safe to say he's definitely made the most of his sobriety.
In his twenties, James was a semi-professional rugby player until he sustained a serious neck injury at 29. Realising that this had ended his rugby career, he fell into a depression which pushed his drinking into a place where he eventually felt like enough was enough and he had to change his life.
He's now an author, his book 'Ready, Set, Life: A Story Of Redemption And The Lessons Learned' came out last year but even more importantly than that, he's also a Dad!
Well it was lovely having James on the pod, he's a really inspiring guy and we know you're going to love listening to his episode with us. You can keep up with James on his Instagram.
